First photo is lower left side...with or without center stand or left side muffler support bracket for dual exhaust. The crash bars mount on the inside of the frame on the rear tabs on either side. Mounting on the inside allows for the muffler support bracket for either side.

Second photo here is lower right side with the muffler support bracket for 2 in 1 exhaust:

The upper mounting locations should be obvious. A 3/8" inch threaded rod can be used through the tube in the frame under the seat and just in front of the fender, but I didn't have a picture of that handy. Hope this helps.
